This document defines and provides examples of basic geometric terms including: - Points have no dimensions and define an exact location in space. - Lines extend infinitely in both directions and have no beginning or end. - Angles are formed by two rays with a common endpoint and are measured in degrees. Common angles include acute, right, obtuse, and straight angles. - Plane figures like circles, polygons, and quadrilaterals are two-dimensional shapes on a flat surface. - Solid figures have depth and include spheres, cones, cylinders, pyramids, prisms, and cubes. They are defined by their faces, edges, vertices, and sometimes a base.

Introduction
GEOMETRY:

2. Geometry
Branch of mathematics
concerned with the
properties and relationships
of points, lines, angles,
curves, surfaces, and solids
The visual study of shapes,
sizes, patterns, and positions

3. Basic Geometric Terms

4. An exact location in space
Has no dimension
Point
Read as "point A"
Examples:
tip of a pencil dot on a map

5. A collection of points along a straight path
that extends continuously in both directions
Has no beginning or end
Illustrated by drawing arrows at each end
Line
Read as "line AB"
Example:
horizon

6. Lines in the same plane that do not
intersect or cross each other
Always the same distance apart
Parallel Lines
Examples:
railway tracks
piano or keyboard keys

7. Two or more lines that meet or
cross each other at a point
Intersecting Lines
Example:
bicycle spokes intersecting roads

8. Intersecting lines that form a right angle
(90 degrees)
Perpendicular Lines
Examples:
grout lines
between
tiles the cross

9. A part of a line having two endpoints
Called as "sides" when found in a
shape
Line Segment
Read as "line segment AB"
Examples:
ruler
pencil
stick

10. A part of a line having only one
endpoint
Has a beginning point but no endpoint
Ray
Read as "ray AB"
Examples:
beam of light from a light source
rays of the sun

11. Made up of two rays (called the
"sides") with a same or common
endpoint (called the "vertex")
Measured using a protractor
Angle
Read as "angle ABC" or "angle B"
Examples:
or

Plane
Read as "plane JKL" or
"plane KLJ" or "plane LJK"
Can be read as:
"plane MNOP" or

Example: surface of a table

22. Two-dimensional (2D) shape
Any set of points on a plane
Includes polygons and any flat
shape (circles, triangles,
quadrilaterals, parallelograms)
PLANE FIGURE

23. a closed curve with
a set of points in
one plane and the
same distance from
a center point
perimeter:
circumference (C)
Circle

24. a flat, two-dimensional (2D) shape with straight sides
that is fully closed (all the sides are joined up). The
sides must be straight.
Polygon
Note:
A circle is not a
polygon.

inside angles
equals 180

(side) of the figure
Edge: where two
faces meet
Vertex or Vertices:
corners
Base: the face on
which the figure rests
SOLID FIGURE

triangular faces
Has edges where faces meet each other
or the base, vertices where two faces
meet the base, and a vertex at the top
